This last Sunday we went to San Francisco city’s Stern Grove Park for one of their free summer concerts.. This one being Anushka Shankar with Karsh Kale.. I had never heard of Karsh before but was super impressed by his skills.. He is an awesome percussionist, and kept everyone on their toes.. Anushka along with the flute player, mridangam player and the vocalist were always really good… There was one of the composers from medieval pundits who had added his flavor to all of the Anushka’s songs which gave them a great fusion feel… The park itself was crazy.. And the way it was organized was awesome.. We had a great time!!
A new song that I am really fond of and love the lyrics of.. Sharing with you’all…
Here are the awesome lyrics…
Ristey toh nahi rishton ki parchaayiyaan mile
Yeh kaisi bheed bass yahaan tanhaayiyaan mile
Ek chhat ke tale ajanabi ho jaate hai rishtey
Bistar pe chaadaro se chhup so jaate hai rishtey
Dhunde se bhi iname nahi darmaayiyaan mile
Yeh kaisi bheed hai bass yahaan tanahaayiyaan mile
Jisko bhi dekhiye woh adhura sa hai yahaan
Jaise kahin ho aur woh aadha rakha huwa
Ho jab jahaan jude wahi judaayiyaan mile
Yeh kaisi bheed bass yahaan tanhaayiyaan mile
Ristey toh nahi rishton ki parchaayiyaan mile
Yeh kaisi bheed bass yahaan tanhaayiyaan mile
This past weekend we drove down to LA from San Francisco to see our dear friend Dushyant.. We also caught up with Akhil and Karishma.. Visited Beverly Hills, Hollywood etc yet again but it was Shank’s first time there.. We also went to the Venice beach.. Here are some pics:
I know its been long since I posted something up here… As most of you know, I ve been busy moving to CALIFOR-N-I-A!! And with settling down and adjusting to the new client… The city I am living in is called Foster City and its 20-25 mins south of San Francisco City… The city is right next to the bay shore and has a lagoon that runs through it.. Here are some pics:
This is an aerial view of the city with the green arrow indicating the apartment complex…
Here’s another aerial view..
The Apartment complex is on the water.. And this is how it looks…
Foster City has a lot of activities.. Wind surfing and kayaking in the lagoon.. Shank and I have also initiated ourselves into the Golf sport and have golfed at this awesome Golf Course.. Neighboring this course is the bay where on weekends one can see so many kite surfers, some also in the air.. Here’s some pics…
Apart from all that, Foster City is just simply so beautiful that one cant believe it.. Here’s some scenic pics of the city…
Hopefully I will be able to buy one of these houses some day…
